Definitions
- the invention relates to low surface tension surfactants containing hydroxyl groups, and to their use as surfactants in aqueous coating formulations.
- Water-based paints and coatings are used on a large scale industrially.
- Critical to effective wetting of the substrate is the lowering of the surface tension of the aqueous system by means of a surfactant.
- a surfactant it is not only the lowering of the static surface tension to a small value that is decisive, but also the corresponding lowering of the dynamic surface tension.
- a low dynamic surface tension is needed in particular for high-speed applications, for example, when applying coatings by spraying, or in printing operations.
- the surfactants used must not disrupt the formation of a uniform film, must not cause any turbidity, and should be low-foaming—that means they should not promote the build-up of significant amounts of foam.
- Water-based paints and coatings include formulations which, while being aqueous systems, include fractions of organic solvents alongside the water, such as is mandatory as a result, for example, of the use of glycols as antifreeze agents or used in the form of humectants in aqueous pigment pastes, or else as film-forming assistants or lowering the minimum film formation temperature of numerous aqueous dispersions.
- nonionic surfactants such as alkylaryl ethoxylates or alcohol ethoxylates or ethylene oxide (EO)-propylene oxide (PO) copolymers are certainly capable of reducing the static surface tension
- EO ethylene oxide
- PO ethylene oxide
- the high molecular weight and resultant low molecular mobility of these classes of compounds mean that it is not possible to lower the dynamic surface tension to a value which is acceptable to the user.
- anionic surfactants such as the sodium salts of monoalkyl or dialkyl sulfosuccinates, are able effectively to reduce the dynamic surface tension, but using them leads to severe build-up of foam in application, and the finished coating reacts sensitively to water.
- surfactants of this kind have been able to establish themselves convincingly in numerous applications. Their properties are attributed primarily to the rigid acetylenic alkyl spacer, which, as a result of the restricted degrees of freedom, imposes a kind of preorientation of polar and non polar groups. Responsibility for these properties is additionally ascribed to the small distance between the polar groups and to the low molecular weight ( ⁇ 300 g/mol), which allows the surfactant molecules to be highly mobile.
- a problem with compounds of this type is that, in applications, foam build-up reoccurs after a very short time. For the user, however, it is very important to prevent this new foam build-up for as long as possible.
- the alternative would be to add defoamers, whose possible consequences include unwanted defects in the formation of the coating film, and problems with interlayer adhesion.
- the ecotoxicological evaluation of products based on 2,4,6,8-tetramethyl-5-decynediol is not unproblematic, and in addition the products are labeled at least with “Xi” (irritant).
- Xi irritant

- the invention further provides hydroxyl-containing surfactants obtained by reacting one or more epoxides of formula (I) above with at least one, or two or more, amine(s) of formula (III)
- the invention further provides ether alcohols of the general formulae (IV) and (V)
- the invention further provides amino alcohols of the general formulae (VI) and (VII)
- the invention further provides for the use of the amino alcohols and/or ether alcohols of the invention as additives in aqueous formulations for, in particular, surface coatings, paints, printing inks or varnishes.
- the invention further provides aqueous formulations comprising at least one of the amino alcohols and/or ether alcohols of the invention, such wetting agents being used normally in amounts from about 0.05% to about 5% by weight, preferably from about 0.1% to about 3% by weight.

- Glycidyl esters used include but are not limited to glycidyl neodecanoate, glycidyl 2-ethylhexanoate, and the glycidyl esters of various other aliphatic branched or unbranched carboxylic acids, such as Isocarb® 10, Isocarb® 12, Isocarb® 16, and Isocarb® 20 (Sasol Guerbet Alcohols oxidized to carboxylic acids).

- the ether alcohols and amino alcohols claimed are prepared using glycidyl compounds and alcohols or amines, respectively, either, preferably, in amounts which are approximately equivalent, based on epoxide groups and reactive hydroxy or amine hydrogen atoms, or with an excess of hydroxy or amine hydrogen atoms.
- the basis for calculation that is used is that of the OH number, amine number, and epoxide value, which are figures familiar to the skilled worker.
- FIG. 1 depicts a comparison of the dynamic surface tension of the surfactants of the invention against non-inventive surfactants.
- Determining the dynamic surface tension of the formulated systems is essential to be able to estimate the rate at which a wetting agent molecule reaches a newly generated interface in order to be able to make an active contribution to destroying foam.
- a defined amount of wetting agent is added to a defined amount of a test system and is incorporated using a toothed-wheel disk at 1 500 rpm for 1 minute. Subsequently air is introduced at 3 000 rpm for 1 minute, and foam produced. The resulting foam height is read off and viewed in comparison with the foam height reached in the absence of the wetting agent. Thereafter a measurement is made of the time taken for the foam to go down completely, something which generally does not happen at all in the absence of wetting agents.
- Foam is built up in a defined amount of a test system using a perforated disk (see below) at 2 000 rpm for 1 minute. Then a defined amount of wetting agent is placed on the foam and the occurrence of spontaneous defoaming is assessed visually (bursting air bubbles, “prickling” on the surface) and graded as absent ( ⁇ ), present (+/ ⁇ ) or very characteristic (+).
- Shearing with the perforated disk is then repeated at 2 000 rpm for one minute. This time a stopwatch is used to record the time which elapses before foam builds up again. If a wetting agent is able to prevent foam building up again, it is classified, with “>60 s”, as very active.
- a defined amount of this sample is subsequently introduced into a measuring cylinder and the foam height is recorded by reporting ml of foam and is compared with a blank sample.
- the perforated disk employed actually comprises three disks arranged one above the other on a spindle (disk thickness 3 mm, disk diameter 25 mm) and each having three holes (diameter: 5 mm). The distance between the individual disks is 9 mm and they rotate vertically by 120° on the securing spindle.
- This apparatus allows optimum introduction of macrofoam and microfoam, such as occurs in painting application operations (such as rolling or spraying, for example) and production processes and can be prevented by suitable wetting agents.
- the sample is again stirred with the perforated disk at 2000 rpm for 1 minute and again the resulting foam height of the sample is read off in a measuring cylinder.
- the wetting agent is still available in the system and hence is also found to be stable to hydrolysis.
- wetting agents of the invention are labeled S1 to S7.
- Noninventive, comparative examples are the following wetting agents, which are supplied as commercial products for aqueous systems and can be characterized in accordance with the details below.
- JonCryl® ECO 2189 (glycol-ether-free, film-forming polymer dispersion) 1) 44.1 g
- JonCryl® ECO 2177 (glycol-ether-free, film-forming polymer dispersion) 1) 17.7 g
- Table 1 shows that using the wetting agents claimed in accordance with the invention significantly reduces foam build-up as compared with the blank sample and with the comparative examples.
- the surfactants claimed in accordance with the invention neither exhibit the unsatisfactory water solubility and resultant unsatisfactory reduction in surface tension of, for example, comparative example V1 (solid hydrophobic substance), and nor, unlike for example V4 to V6, are they limited in terms of dynamic surface tension, which particularly with 10 bubbles/sec is relevant for rapid application operations.
- the compounds of the invention exhibit pronounced spontaneous defoaming. It is this property of the innovative surfactants which is of greatest interest for the coatings manufacturer. If particular products such as S4 to S7 are still selected, it is additionally possible to obtain surfactants which are also notable for particularly low residual foam values as well, and which even on further introduction of shearing are capable of long-lasting foam prevention. As a consequence it is not necessary to add additional wetting agent or defoamer to the automotive finish system, even after storage.
- 0.5% surfactant is weighed out into 10 g of a water-dilutable, self-crosslinking alkyd resin containing urethane groups, Resydrol VAZ 5541 (Solutia), and the surfactant is incorporated by stirring with a Hausschild Speedmixer at 3600 rpm for one minute.
- the coating material is drawn down onto aluminum at 50 ⁇ m using a box-type applicator, in order to assess the compatibility.
- the compounds claimed in accordance with the invention can be utilized without reserve as wetting agents in aqueous paints, inks, and other coating materials, since they significantly lower the surface tension, it being possible for these aqueous paints and inks to include, if desired, fractions of organic solvents.
- a particularly interesting feature is that even in rapid application operations they become apparent as effective wetting agents, on account of their dynamic surface tension profile, which is virtually independent of the frequency, i.e., of the multiplicity of newly created interfaces.
- the hydroxyl-containing surfactants claimed in accordance with the invention therefore combine, in a hitherto unknown profile of properties, spontaneous-defoaming properties, which are used during coatings manufacture and application, with vigorous foam destruction (residual foam values zero or very low).
- spontaneous-defoaming properties which are used during coatings manufacture and application, with vigorous foam destruction (residual foam values zero or very low).
- the last-mentioned property is found even after storage of the coating material, which implies that the compounds claimed in accordance with the invention are not subject to hydrolytic attack—that is, they are surprisingly stable.
- the compounds claimed in accordance with the invention do not realize foam destruction at the cost of disrupted surface image, and so even sensitive automotive finish surfaces can be applied without defect.
